Not sure what to say?

It has obviously been a few years, but I am just learning of his passing. Dr. Beckett was the most amazing dentist I had ever known. I always said I would drive back to IN if I could. He was so caring..and had quite the sense of humor. He will be greatly missed.

I wish to extend my deepest sympathy to family and friends of Dr. Beckett. He was such a kind man and every year I enjoyed visiting with him as he was seeking sponsorships for the Wabash County Historical Society Essay Contest. He truly loved Wabash! He also had a great respect for our local law enforcement, which he always asked that I pass along his appreciation to my husband. He will be missed by many.

Dr Beckett was a wonderful Dentist. He was always concerned with my health and comfort.

So sorry to hear of his passing.

Sincerely Jeff Peterson Wabash resident 1997-2007

Our deepest sympathy for your loss

So sorry to hear this. He was my dentist for a long time. When I couldn't afford dentures, he got them, free of charge. He really cared about people.

Dr. Beckett was obviously a very accomplished person, with many interests and involved in many worthwhile endeavors. Our condolences to his family - it was so unexpected and surprising. He should have had much more time.
